It features jarrah floorboards, solid Tasmanian oak cabinet faces and benches topped in precision-cut Mintaro slate that perfectly compliments the striking splash-backs.
Tasteful crafting of natural timber and quality soft furnishing textures have created a home of subdued sophistication, comfortable enough in its own skin to equally have a casual family barbeque, or to provide a reception for royalty.
